Subpedestrian Homesick Blues

Matt considers Art and Surfing wonderful problems to have and has stopped trying to quit either of them years ago.

He explains his work: ” I tend to work in series, where each one contains a concept at its core that I wanted to visually explore. Sometimes they overlap and spill into each other, as they should. Life is unlimited, there is always more to learn and find and wonder about. Just like traveling an unfamiliar stretch of coastline, always curious about what lies around the next bend, so it is with my art”.
